Hyundai Santa Fe DM (3rd Generation)

2013–2018 · DM · suv

Third-gen Santa Fe split the US lineup into two distinct vehicles: the shorter-wheelbase DM was sold as Santa Fe Sport (two rows), while the long-wheelbase NC was the standard Santa Fe (three rows). DM Sport ran the 2.4L Theta II GDI (190 hp) and the 2.0L Theta II turbo (264 hp). Both wheelbases used the Fluidic Sculpture design language. The three-row Santa Fe was replaced by the Palisade for 2020, and the platform was unified for the TM fourth-gen.

Watch out: REAL ISSUE: Theta II 2.0T and 2.4L applications are squarely in Hyundai's catastrophic rod-bearing recall pattern. Multiple NHTSA campaigns apply. Engine fire risk on early-build cars led to an additional recall. VIN-check is mandatory.
